Best Vets in Northern Ireland

Banbridge Pet Vets is a small-animal practice that is also listed as a Veterinary Nurse Training facility. Reviews describe the clinic as able to see new patients quickly (including same-day appointments on the day of registration) and to help with second-opinion cases, including a senior dog that an owner felt was “properly diagnosed” and treated promptly. Owners also mention fast test results and staff taking time to answer lots of questions. Experiences are mostly very positive, but there is one detailed account describing an appointment with a different vet as abrupt and not a thorough check, especially for a stressed cat in a dog-filled waiting area.

Strule Veterinary Services is set up for both routine care and urgent cases, with emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours) listed in the clinic data. In the latest reviews available to us, owners describe the team handling poisoning risk (a dog eating a large amount of chocolate) and a serious dog-attack injury involving the eye, including weeks of follow-up treatment. Reviewers also mention vets explaining findings clearly (one owner highlights a thorough exam) and hands-on, low-stress handling (removing eye stitches without sedation in one case).

Flynn Vets Commons Brae is part of the Flynn Vets group and is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. Reviews describe a practice that handles both routine support and more complex cases, with multiple examples of surgery and structured aftercare: TPLO surgery with follow-up “via the pet smart app,” eye-ulcer surgery with healing reported afterwards, and a splenic tumour removal done after a second-opinion consult. Several owners also describe end-of-life care, including pain relief to allow time at home before euthanasia, plus keepsakes (paw prints and a hair cutting) and a sympathy card sent later.

Mourne Veterinary Clinic is described in the available clinic data as a veterinary nurse training facility and as offering emergency veterinary services (24/7 or extended hours). Ownership/group status isn’t stated in the information provided. From the latest reviews, the clinic appears set up for routine preventative care as well as support for anxious or nervous pets. Owners repeatedly mention: - Booster/annual vaccinations being carried out smoothly, including for very nervous dogs. - Time spent discussing behavioural concerns (one owner mentions discussing a dog’s anxiety during a booster visit). - Vets bringing in a more experienced colleague for additional advice when needed.

Jubilee Veterinary Centre is a veterinary practice with 24/7 emergency care listed in its services, and it’s also described as a veterinary nurse training facility. Based on the latest reviews, owners most often talk about dogs and cats, but there are also multiple recent accounts involving reptiles and birds (tortoises, bearded dragon, macaw, snake). Experiences appear mixed for exotic pets: some owners credit the practice with solving long-running reptile issues and supporting recovery after illness, while others report serious concerns about decision-making and handling in exotic cases (including complaints about imaging quality, antibiotics/oxygen decisions, and euthanasia advice). Concrete details mentioned by owners include: a treatment plan created for a tortoise after a year of unresolved issues elsewhere, a report of appointments obtained for a bearded dragon, and emergency/urgent capability referenced as “24/7 on-site emergency care” by a reviewer. One negative bird review specifically describes an unclear X-ray and a perceived delay in providing oxygen for respiratory symptoms.

Glenburn Veterinary Surgeons is a group of three veterinary practices (as described on its website). The clinic is set up for routine small‑animal care (cats, dogs and other small animals) as well as urgent presentations: recent reviews describe being seen quickly for weekend emergencies, with diagnostics such as X‑rays used for a painful cat. The website also flags preventative care options via a Pet Health Club® Plus plan that includes consultations. Owners’ experiences in reviews are mostly positive about access and handling—getting appointments when needed, a “large reception area,” and staff taking time to keep a first visit low‑stress for a nervous dog—but there are also sharply negative accounts around cost and being asked to pay before treatment, and one detailed complaint about a rushed/unsupported diagnosis with no tests offered.

Campsie Veterinary Centre / MiNightVet Omagh is a small-animal practice that offers a 24-hour emergency service with full-time night staff, alongside routine care and surgery. The clinic’s online information is published via a CVS Clinical Website content source. On the clinical side, the practice lists endoscopy and keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery, plus orthopaedic and soft-tissue surgery referrals. From the latest reviews available to us, owners most often mention: - Overnight/emergency care specifically, with thanks directed to the “MiNightVet team” and an “overnight team”. - Detailed explanations for anxious owners (“explained everything in detail”). - Support around euthanasia, with reviewers describing a gentle approach during a difficult goodbye. - A small number of serious complaints (rudeness, waiting time, medication concerns, and one allegation of a fatal dosing error), which conflict with the many positive experiences reported.

Roe Valley Vet Clinic describes itself as a family-run practice with 70+ years providing veterinary care, and it is listed as a veterinary nurse training facility. From recent reviews, the clinic appears set up for day-to-day pet healthcare (including booster vaccinations and follow-up appointments), as well as more complex situations where diagnostic imaging (X‑ray/scan) and end-of-life decisions may be involved. Owners repeatedly mention being listened to, having conditions and treatment options explained, and being asked back for follow-ups; one review also highlights care for a hamster outside normal expectations (“taking the time out of your busy evening”). Pricing experiences are mixed: one owner alleges unnecessary add-ons and high costs during a serious illness.

No corporate group ownership is mentioned in the available information. The practice promotes a preventative-care membership (“Pet Health Club”) and is described by reviewers as taking time to explain findings—one owner specifically mentions being shown X‑rays and having results talked through in detail. Reviews also reference more involved care (an elderly cat kept in overnight after complex surgery, with a vet calling back in the evening to check on progress). One recurring negative account describes a lack of privacy during a dog pregnancy scan and dissatisfaction with the information provided despite a £90 fee.

Vet On Call operates under the Flynn Vets brand from a clinic that opened in June 2018. The practice advertises routine care (vaccinations, new puppy/kitten checks, neutering) as well as “full clinical investigations” when pets are unwell, and states it provides a 24‑hour emergency service. In the latest reviews available to us, owners most often describe strong communication (including costs explained in advance) and compassionate end‑of‑life care, including arranging euthanasia at short notice.
